Why Clean Beauty

6.4.2021

Clean beauty has quickly become a trend among beauty and health enthusiasts. However, what does "clean beauty" actually mean? Here we give you a brief overview of the "Clean Beauty Movement" and why it matters.


First, clean beauty most satisfies these two main points:

-Non-toxic ingredients: safe ingredients that are not harmful to your health

-Transparent labels: no mystery ingredients, clear and honest messaging 


Clean beauty will never claim to be something that it is not.


Clean beauty isn't about being 100% perfect. Hence products don't necessarily need to be "natural" or "organic" to be considered "clean." So as long as man made ingredients are safe and non-toxic, they get the green light. Hence, clean beauty's focus isn't to be "natural" but eliminate as many toxins as possible from our daily products. It also wants us to be more aware of what we use and decide to put on our bodies since the beauty industry lacks regulation.


Clean beauty = All Natural? Not necessarily 


What types of ingredients should you always avoid?


1.Parabens

2. Fragrance

3.Chemical UV filters
